Popis: | We perfused 16 human femora with a 50% barium sulphate suspension and studied the intra-osseous vessels by microfocal radiography and histology. There were few anastomoses between the vessels of the greater trochanter and those of the adjacent cancellous bone of the shaft. Ischaemia of the trochanter may contribute to nonunion after trochanteric osteotomy. |
